"last of my try out clips in which I make music using only the YAMAHA CS 10 & YAMAHA CS 2X and a loopstation. O.k the last of the three pieces got a bit too happy but well, .. maybe one bottle of Chimay to many"

Xhun Audio - Little One

"Xhun Audio is proud to present LittleOne, a faithful emulation of a new classic: the Moog Little Phatty analog synthesizer.

To produce the same rich and warm sound of the original hardware, LittleOne emulates every single component of the Little Phatty (oscillators, filter, envelopes, LFO ...), preserving the original frequency responses and frequency ranges.

The result is an analog-sounding instrument - all in the digital domain.

But it's not over.
In addition to the Little Phatty synthesizer emulation, LittleOne encloses a full rack with a 16-step MIDI sequencer, a 16-step trancegate effect and two master effects slots. Go to 'Specs' section for more details."

Analogue Solutions Europa Release Date and Price

Analogue Solutions new Europ Sequencer is set to be available March 1st for $799 according to Noisebug.

"KEY FEATURES OF EUROPA
* Intuitive and simple programming procedure
* No sub-menus or shift keys - one function per key
* Simple to use - TR808/606 style programming.
* Analogue features - analogue tempo clock, 7 analogue trigger outs, analogue sync signals
* Live editing features
* Transpose, Octave shift, Mute
* Rugged steel construction.

Europa is a hardware sequencer, it does not contain a 'sound engine'. It has been designed from the ground up to be utilised with your MIDI synths, analogue modular, drum brains and drum machines.

Eurpoa was designed to be utilised with our SQ8 and Oberkorn analogue sequencers (and anything else with a compatible clock input).

Either use the main sync out or one of the seven trigger outputs to clock your analogue sequencers. Have them step whenever you like by programming triggers into the Europa sequencer. You can have 2 sequencers play alternately. You can mute the track so the Oberkorn/SQ8 sequencer stops! Use another trigger and you can activate the reset feature of the Oberkorn/SQ8!"

"My first waldorf blofeld video demo, nothing too interesting, just showing the neat things you can do with some delay, a slightly more than simple arpegio and the pitch bend of a midi controller"

Sequential Circuits Pro One Vintage Synthesizer

YouTube via intromix
"A brief description of the deep "Bassy" sounds of the legendary Pro One Synth and the artists that used this keyboard back in the day. Thankfully there is a way to sequence the synth patterns without purchasing a midi kit to sync it. Any pulse output will trigger the CV/GATE input of the Pro One, and I tried the Roland TB-303 and it didn't work that great, but worked PERFECT with the 808. This unit is the J-wire version which was upgraded for the better, being the first 1500 units made from 1981-1984 had problems."
